So I am new to charting, I sleep with my mouth open as i almost always have a sinus infection.... does this affect my tempreature?? Is there another way i can take my morning temp?

You can take it vaginally too. But it's suggested that you not switch which way you do it mid-cycle. If you don't get a BFP this time around, start temping vaginally started your next cycle. Some say it doesn't matter if you sleep w/ your mouth open, some do. ???

I would think if you ALWAYS sleep with your mouth open you would be able to see a pattern because your temps would always be lower. But if sometimes you sleep with it open, sometimes closed, that would be a problem because the temp would not be affected the same way by the environment.

Tam, if you are concerned about it temp vaginally in the future.

Okay, I'd recommend temping Vaginally if you have a next cycle, fingers crossed you won't have to worry about that though! I am going to do some research for you and I'll post what info I find. Good Luck! Great pic of you and dh in you siggie!!!

I was sick the last two cycles and had sinus infections.. this cycle thank goodness I was healthy the entire cycle... knock on wood....

If it is something that wont get better vaginally temping may work best for you.
